Winter Wedding Beauty and Style Tips

by Jade Darroughon 19 January 2019in Photoshoots

                  

Ah, there’s no better place in the winter than Colorado. One day it can be 25 degrees, fluffy snow falling throughout the state. Another, the temperature can swing 30 degrees, snow is melted, the sun – blinding, as if it were the middle of June.
We have it pretty easy here in this gorgeous Rocky Mountain State, but the unpredictable weather can make things a little tricky for soon-to-be brides planning their Colorado winter wedding. Just like any day of the year, you literally don’t know what temperature or conditions you are going to

“I don’t want whiter teeth” – no one ever

by Jade Darroughon 7 December 2018in Uncategorized

As a Colorado based wedding hair and makeup artist, it’s so important that anytime I show up to anything, I look my absolute best. Not to mention, when attending a big event, traveling, or *ahem* know I will be in a lot of photos (especially professional photos) I need to do ALL the beauty things!
Eyelashes extensions, fresh nails, clean haircut, shiny new color, and the perfect spray tan… to name a few. I’ve discovered a new “pampering” must to add to the list (but it only needs to be touched up every 6 months-1 year).

Wedding Beauty and Fashion for Rocky Mountain Fall Weddings

by Jade Darroughon 21 September 2018in Photoshoots

It’s September 21, which is the last day of summer… so it’s basically Fall.
It’s totally valid for everyone to ditch the shorts, throw on leggings with boots, and go to the closest Starbucks to order a venti PSL. 
Serious talk though, the leaves are changing in the Rocky Mountains and it’s absolutely beautiful! As of today, the temperature is FINALLY dropping (below 90 degrees, haha) and Colorado residents are getting a nice refresher on what it’s like to have a chill in the air. After the scorching summer, we’ve had, everyone seems to be craving that 4 letter word… F-A-L-L. Some

Boulder, CO | Mountain Wedding Elopement

by Jade Darroughon 12 January 2018in Photoshoots

Colorado winters are so unpredictable – January especially.
In the first month of 2018, the weather treated us just right. For this ideal Colorado elopement, we embraced the beautiful blue skies and slight Rocky Mountain breeze. Most of the day was spent on the peaks in Boulder… not too shabby. Bride and groom, Brittany and Jordan, dressed to the nines and hiked the Boulder Flat Irons all for the sake of some glorious mountain top images.

The bride chose separates of a long and flowing skirt coupled with a long sleeve lace top by Heidi Elnora (exclusively at Blue Bridal). Her wedding day wear

I welcome you to enjoy our tribute to one of Hollywood’s most cherished icons, Audrey Hepburn…

Imagine if Audrey Hepburn were to be married in Denver…
at the Brown Palace…

A few words of wisdom to keep in your back pocket from the glamorous, playful legend:

“Success is like reaching an important birthday and finding you’re exactly the same.”

“Paris is always a good idea.”

“The most important thing is to enjoy your life -to be happy- that is all that matters.”

“I never think of myself as an icon. What is in other people’s minds is not in mine. I just do my thing.”

Behind the Chair with Jade

by Jade Darroughon 14 August 2014in Behind the Chair Beauty, Photoshoots, Tutorials

Here’s a little glimpse into what it’s like to be behind the chair with Jade. Customized hairstyle to YOUR liking, professional makeup and personal photoshoot (must book in advance.) Some people prefer to arrive prepared with photos and examples of what they like and some like to leave it completely up to the professional. Either way is absolutely perfect with me, as long as YOU feel comfortable and excited about the outcome!
Kari decided to leave everything up to the professional and put it into my hands to give her a little… UMPH. Not that she needed it, she is naturally
